PHOTOGRAPHER REACTS TO Stray Kids Han x Balmain for W Korea June 2024 Issue

[@Tristana.Keauna]

calming, a little tortured, eyes closed looking up to the light is honestly a pretty apt way to describe Han, at least to me. He is such a dynamic artist. Again, these fashion houses just really knew how to capture the essence of the members. The one with the mirrored, light coming down on him though is my favorite.

I’m learning so much

Han fits balmain well❤

[@TheDeonJackson]

Yesssss

[@jomorbista2009]

Han is actually an ambassador for Balmain now!

[@TheDeonJackson]

Yesss werk

[@esidhe]

Seungmin is the one that is best at english after the aussies.

[@ravenimperatrix]

Han also is pretty fluent in English and Hyunjin and IN are both improving greatly, it seems Lee Know has the most trouble speaking English, but does very well in Japanese.

[@SheOwensItAll]

Just wanted to share some Han Jisung lore you would appreciate… Han famously has anime baby girl legs and a SNATCHED waist ❤

[@adaemily09]

my fave pic wasnt even on here idk why BUT his photoshoot was just my all time favorite so all pics were 10/10 for me. little biased maybe but idc. there has been some speculating who he might partner with. and i think balmain is so correct for him. other contenders were vivienne westwood‚ since he's worn them in the past a lot‚ and that would've been kinda great too.

Han can rock anything. I check out his fits in their videos as he aways comes across as the most daring to me. Really liked the last shot!

[@free_falling_in_abyss]

Ahh i felt a little nervous clicking this video since han is my ult bias and this is his first solo photoshoot with a brand. I think han did really well and i liked the clothes balmain gave him, they suit his style. Han is really pretty and able to pull of many styles as far as i have seen. This photoshoot had some pictures i really liked and some i loved. Like a lot of it felt very moody, artistic, quiet but thoughtful which i feel like is very han in terms of the kinds of music he loves to make. My one nit pick would be the picture at 5:47 i didnt really like the composition or the pose because it looks like han is changing poses instead of actively posing in it and the composition making him look as tall as the logo didnt really make sense to me, im really surprised they didn't choose a different picture seeing there were a lot of cool ones from the behind the scenes and his instagram. He did have two different colored lenses i think. My faves would be the 2 cover images and the image at 9:05 and 9:59. He honestly did so well with such a minimalistic set. The vibes were immaculate. He is such an artist so the picture at 9:05 felt so quintessentially him to me❤

[@TheDeonJackson]

Omg he’s your ult? Since when? Who was the previous ult?

[@rugr82day]

7:35 I think Han looks a lot like Hannah Bang in this photo. There's one other photo of him where he looks a lot like Hannah. It's one taken after a stage rehearsal and his hair is super long. In it he looks sweaty but so pretty; a STAY posted it saying "Who's girlfriend is this?"... I agree we should have seen more space between his other arm. Han has broad shoulders and a tiny little waste and this might have been the outfit to emphasize that.

Hannie is our Rockstar! The man breathes, bleeds, needs music. It's air to him and he finds complete hapiness in his work. Han is a part of gym-racha (alongside Changbin and Chan, and now Innie as well interesting enough) but i agree, his neck be looking beautifully thick in these 😮. My fave has to be the one where he is almost sandwiched under that overhead light as we get the clearest Han visual, but he looked amazing in all of them 🖤

[@angelalam5949]

han is really killing us with his visuals this year. He's always beautiful but the longer hair suits him so well. i think my fav image will be the last one and the other one with the same outfit(the negative space one), they both have the same vibe and i love the composition Also, han lived in malaysia during his childhood and learned english there so he is pretty fluent and the other fluent member is seungmin

[@SheOwensItAll]

3:08 DEON!!!! omg I’m screaming 😂😂😂😂

[@TheDeonJackson]

Strong throat?

[@SheOwensItAll]

@@TheDeonJackson yes sir! You know he’s a ROCKSTAR with that strong throat!

[@TheDeonJackson]

Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@thaifanmeetusa]

Love your reactions to magazine issues and stray kids are starting to grow on me!

[@ninadiamant8937]

I don't know exactly why, but these photos appeal to me A LOT

[@TheDeonJackson]

Oh yea?

[@Stay4Eva.143]

Miley Cyrus, Midnight Sky mv around the 220 timestamp.

[@TheDeonJackson]

That’s the one!!!!

[@MrKawaleknieba]

Plisss can you do Lee know next❤❤❤❤❤

[@Stay4Eva.143]

Maybe so.eone here can help me. I'm having a hard time with Han's face in some of these because it looks so different from what I'm used to. And in one of the cover photos, one of his eyes was way off to the side, looking very odd. Is that meant to be the artistry in these shoots? I love them all, but trying to understand so I can appreciate each one for it's unique quality.

[@TheDeonJackson]

It’s def the lighting and retouching. It can be a require taste for sure.

[@rugr82day]

Just by the recent picture on his IG you can tell Han can take amazing photos and I don't think they knew how to approach him here in most of these. The outfits were fine and I loved them on him, but facially I think they missed out on going for the more soft and innocent vibe, but he can also give seductive vibes too. He also does sad and lost looks very well and is great at shots where he looks directly into the camera at you. It's like they styled him emo Rock Star emo but forgot to have him give emo Rock Star; which he absolutely can. Han has a lot of sides to himself and I hope to see him in more solo shoots with someone who can bring out the many sides of Han Jisung.

[@Stay4Eva.143]

@rugr82day Thank you so much for this breakdown. I wholeheartedly agree.

[@Stay4Eva.143]

@TheDeonJackson ok, that's the wording I was looking for. I'm no fashion expert, but I appreciate the aesthetic that I'm used to. Thank you for helping me acquire a taste for these exquisite photos.
